Configuring Username and Password Security
Overview
Console access includes both the menu interface and the CLI. There are two
levels of console access: Manager and Operator. For security, you can set a
password pair (username and password) on each of these levels.
Notes Usernames are optional. Also, in the menu interface, you can configure
passwords, but not usernames. To configure usernames, use the CLI or the
WebAgent.
Usernames and passwords for Manager and Operator access can also be
configured using SNMP. For more information, refer to “Using SNMP To View
and Configure Switch Authentication Features” on page 6-30.
Usernames and passwords for Manager and Operator access can also be
configured using the Management Interface Wizard. For more information,
refer to “Quick Start: Using the Management Interface Wizard” on page 1-11.
